Jeez - why would you?
Like an explosion in a paint factory nut !
I wasn't far off the mark - you use food colouring
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
ghastly aren't they?
but maybe not what mgf is talking about.
The ones on the link are not real, that couldn't happen

Despatched from china. Trade description act does not apply.
If you can grow this without a,liberal dose of photoshop, I'm sure the RHS and the BBC will be very interested.
The only rainbow roses I've seen are the one in my avatar, and I bought them from Butters.
Did you buy the bouquet like that?
I can only think they split the stem and stand them in different colour inks. The blue and orange crysanths currently in bouquets are dyed like that.
You are right Fidget, stems split and left to soak up ink. I was a florist and we used to get asked for these all the time. I grew to loathe them, such a waste of a flower as the ink makes them wilt really quickly
Yes I did buy them like that £2 for 20 and they lasted me 2 weeks. Not something you see very often and these were a nice colour combination and for £2 they were worth it.
